"Cho labhar ris a’ ghaoith"
As noisy as the wind

 

From the world class beaches, choose the empty seven-mile Strand or discover your own secret cove. Enjoy and listen to the tumbling lines of Atlantic rollers or squeak across singing sands. Explore caves and stacks or hunt for semi-precious gems amongst the great ovoid pebbles that have travelled further than you.

 

Photograph your own sand art on golden, silver and pink sands. Track the five-toed otters or watch the oystercatcher get its shellfish.

 

Islay... vivid, unspoilt splendour
